But Li Chengfeng was different. He had experienced death and rebirth multiple times. Each death was a process of alchemy for him.
It was just that he didn't fully understand this at the time, nor did he have the Dao rhythm cultivation he possessed now.
With the continuous enhancement of his strength, he cautiously faced life and cultivation each time, which in itself was a form of heart refinement.
He comprehended Dao rhythms, pursuing the unity of all laws. Without a deep understanding and control of Dao rhythms, how could he achieve the unity of all laws?
At this moment, he finally understood: others need to refine their hearts, but I, Li Chengfeng, do not.
Because I have already abandoned the mundane world and wholeheartedly pursue the Dao. My Dao is the Dao of Destiny, the unity of all laws.
Why should I follow their path, pursuing ruthless destruction, love and hatred, the Dao of Fire, the Dao of the Five Elements, and the other three thousand great Daos of the world? Each Dao has its unique Dao rhythm, am I supposed to refine my heart for each one?
No, because what I control is Destiny. Whether it's Dao techniques or the myriad things in the world, they all have Destiny.
And I am the origin of Dao, the master of Minor Destiny, Minor Destiny Technique.
As Li Chengfeng delved deeper into the realm of heart refinement, his perception of the vast and boundless Great Dao became increasingly profound and mysterious, as if each heartbeat resonated with the heavens and earth, and his understanding of the Minor Destiny Technique reached an unprecedented height.
The Minor Destiny Technique, this is both the end point and the starting point of his unity of all laws. It is like a thin thread, connecting his most fundamental understanding of all things in the world.
He himself could not taste the Dao rhythms of all things, such as the named Dao rhythms of Fire and Water, the Dao rhythm of Space, the Dao rhythm of formations, which were as vast as the ocean, and difficult to grasp in its entirety even in a lifetime.
Therefore, he chose a more refined path—to perfect his own unique Minor Destiny Dao rhythm.
Li Chengfeng closed his eyes and concentrated, his heart as clear as a mirror. He realized that the destiny of life and the operation of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be guided by some kind of force in the dark, and there was already a set trajectory.
Whether it was the fleeting clouds of the past or the changes of the future, they were all slowly flowing in the embrace of the Great Dao.
To transcend this established framework, one must master special techniques.
And he, Li Chengfeng, was relying on his unique Minor Destiny Technique to step out of the shackles of the Great Dao, no longer just comprehending and imitating, but observing and understanding the Great Dao from a higher perspective, and ultimately achieving his own Dao. This was the ultimate realm he was pursuing in his heart.
At this moment, his eyes seemed to be lit up by stars, shining with an unprecedented light, a light intertwined with wisdom and determination.
With his hands behind his back, he walked steadily, step by step away from the familiar village, his gaze crossing the layers of mountains, and casting towards the distant and unknown horizon.
As he moved forward, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be gently smoothed by the wind of time flowing backward, and his white hair gradually turned black, radiating vitality.
This journey of heart refinement was undoubtedly a baptism of the soul and a sublimation of his state of mind.
He pondered to himself: "Heart refinement, what is heart refinement? People say that heart refinement is to re-understand one's own Dao and temper one's own state of mind.
But I, Li Chengfeng, have been tempering my character since I was a mortal, walking step by step from that ignorant silly boy, experiencing wind and rain, and tasting hardships.
Each hardship, each pain, each escape, is the nourishment for my spiritual growth and the driving force for my continuous progress."
As Li Chengfeng slowly walked away, his understanding of the Great Dao deepened, his face gradually regained its former glory, and an unprecedentedly powerful aura surged within him, as if to break through all restraints.
However, just as he was high-spirited and about to realize his grand plans, obscure and incomprehensible Heavenly Dao rules suddenly appeared in the sky.
Like invisible shackles, quietly hanging in the sky, seemingly reminding him that even if he jumped out of the framework of the Great Dao, he still needed to follow certain laws of heaven and earth, and not act recklessly.
This invisible rule, like the coldest judgment in the world, clearly indicated that the path of a God Transformation stage cultivator in the human realm was destined to be a thorny and difficult journey to complete.
If a person's Dao cannot be completed, it means a natural chasm in cultivation, which is the threshold of the Half-Step God Transformation stage, a gap that countless late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators dream of but find difficult to cross.
In fact, this half-step distance is often a sign of failure in advancing to the God Transformation stage, and it is the eternal pain in the hearts of countless cultivators.
Li Chengfeng stared at the power of the rules gradually gathering in the sky, those clouds rolling, like the heaviest shackles in the world, obscuring the dreams of all cultivators in the human realm who wanted to touch the threshold of God Transformation.
The root of all this lies in the existence of the ancient demon corpse, whose emanating demonic aura and deathly stillness made the Great Dao of this world feel an unprecedented threat.
If the ancient demon corpse was really refined into a corpse ghost, its power would be enough to shatter the void. At that time, the rules might loosen, but it might also trigger a devastating disaster in the human realm.
However, no matter what the result, as long as someone can accomplish this feat, the seal will be lifted, and a new era may begin.
But Li Chengfeng's plan was completely different from this destructive path.
He cherished a deep love and responsibility for this world in his heart, and longed to give this world fairness and freedom.
Whether it was the glory of the Sword Dao or the mysteries of the Spirit Realm, if it was at the cost of hindering human cultivators from advancing to the Half-Step God Transformation stage, then it would be depriving them of their right to pursue longevity, and it would be the greatest injustice to life.
Thinking of this, Li Chengfeng's eyes became unusually firm, like the brightest star in the night sky, shining with an unyielding light.
With a roar, the aura around him instantly soared, and the Future Traceless Art had already unfolded. A mysterious space-time gate slowly opened in front of him, as if connecting a bridge between the past and the future, spanning the long river of time.
He stepped onto this bridge step by step, each step seeming to be on the pulse of history, each step full of infinite yearning for the future.
This bridge is called the Bridge of Minor Destiny. It is both a path to the future and a link to the past, but at this moment, Li Chengfeng chose to move forward, because in that Future Traceless Art, he might find a way to avoid the constraints of the rules and realize his grand wish.
Like Zhu Hai, Li Chengfeng was now standing at the peak of the God Transformation stage, becoming a veritable powerhouse, and the Qiankun Giant Serpent facing him, this primordial beast, also possessed considerable strength.
Zhu Hai witnessed Li Chengfeng's realm gradually stabilizing, and the Great Dao gradually becoming complete, and couldn't help but admire him secretly.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Li Chengfeng's growth rate was really astonishing.
He had personally witnessed how that former street Nascent Soul gradually transformed until it was as brilliant as it is now.
With his personality, he originally wanted to flatter him, but now he honestly didn't dare to disturb him. There was a priority in everything, and at this time, Li Chengfeng was in the midst of comprehending the Dao.
